foreign women

Now when I leave work in the morning, the sky is filled with heavy bottomed autumn clouds that linger for hours and I love it. I wanted fall to be here and I got it. As I stood at my window and watched the rain fall, I contemplated going to see a matinee. Then I thought about it some more and realized that I didn't want to experience falling asleep in a theater. Since two in the afternoon is bedtime for me, I could easily see myself falling asleep part way through the movie if it was bad enough. Besides having some stranger wake me up in a public place does not sound very appealing.

I was thinking some more about that foreign women site that I mentioned yesterday. My coworker thought that this would be a great way to find a woman to train. Yes, he used the word train and I just kind of sat there and listened to him talk about his plan. He figures that she would have to rely on him for certain things especially if she didn't speak English. Of course the drawback to his plan would be when she made friends with American women and they would tell her how a woman in America should be treated. Then as he continued to talk some more, I had to wonder when was the last time that he had a girlfriend and how did he treat her.

Putting his theory aside for a moment, I don't think that I could meet a woman through such a way despite the assorted testimonials that I find highly suspect. Obviously everything would have to be done through photos and letters, which would take a great deal of time to establish some kind of relationship. Everything would be based on this delayed form of contact which I find odd. Oh, I know that people meet on the internet all of the time, but I'm not sure if that would work for me. Then again I can't say that I have ever tried either. Nor have I ever experienced a blind date.

Regular personal ads already mystify me, so I think corresponding with a woman from another country would be even more beyond my experience. Here would be someone whose whole mindset would be unlike any American woman that I know. Maybe that makes it more exciting by giving it an exotic element, but there is so much to overcome in the beginning. What I consider to be common would probably be foreign to her.

Personally the only way that I could see this working is if the man were fairly international in experience. His tastes and interest would have to more than hanging out at the corner bar and working some kind of factory job. I doubt that the service is meant for some poor uneducated slob looking for a personal servant although I am sure that there is someplace to find that on the web.
